Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

My parents now both passed away had a Florida trust drawn up. I was listed as a trustee. I never received a copy of the trust. The attorney that drew up the trust wants me to send a copy of my mother's death certificate who recently passed away, a copy of my driver�s license and a $50.00 fee in order to receive a copy emailed to me. My question is, is this the correct procedure for an attorney to take when all I want is a copy of my parents trust that he drew up and I never received a copy.

The procedure may be proper under the term of the trust. No way to know that without actually following through. These requirements do not sound invasive.
